MIXED MEDIA ARTIST
“Fusing fiber with technology and mixed media is my newest passion. I love the idea of fiber in motion, the reflective qualities and playing with the different "states" of textiles. I am not married to one material but will use what feels appropriate to the subject. I have used only string to complete some pieces and in some works have used up to four or five mediums. It is more about achieving a visual balance between the mediums and exploring what each material will do in order to work it into new forms. Art is very much an exploration for me, an experiment with materials, both traditional and non-traditional. I work with the ideas of ephemerality and change and how they occur in humans physically, socially and emotionally. Fundamentally, my pieces are about fleeting moments and crossing barriers. ”
